First visit to what I believe is a well-known haunt in this area. Great selection of beers (if London pricey!), but at 17:30 on a weekday the bar service was pretty slow. Staff were friendly enough though and beer quality (taste!) was good, with some Oktoberfest specials on the menu! Atmosphere was good, but with lots of hard surfaces and no noise-dampening, it’s not conducive for easy conversation!

Pretty yummy. We ordered the schnitzel platter. Pork and Chicken Schnitzel, lots of chips/fries, potato salad, salad, pretzels and assorted Sauce and gravys . We couldn't finish it all....but then there was a wunderbar Apple strudel. Oh my yes please. 😋

It would have been better had the waitress known anything at all about what was on the menu, but she had ran trouble understanding what we waved and kept having to look on her tablet to see what it was. The service was fairly slow, too. As for the food, mine was delicious, but the soft-boiled egg was hard-boiled, and the radishes distinctly lacking!

Stopped by for Monday lunch during my Summer vacation in London. Greeted by a cabinet of steins at the entrance, I descended the stairs to find a welcoming authentic Bavarian bierkeller, right in Victoria (Westminster). Settled at a wooden bench, my order of Wiener Schnitzel mit frittierten Kartoffeln was tasty, and the Paulaner pils washed it all down very nicely. Strawberry schnapps was a delight too. I was well looked after by friendly staff. Highly recommended, particularly if you like German food!

We read reviews before visiting the Munich Cricket club at Fenchchurch Street they were mixed but we decided to give it a go...BIG MISTAKE! One review suggested that it was Lidl on a plate, that's fine if it's cooked properly, this was clearly pre cooked food that hadn't even been warmed up properly. The bratwurst was as pale as the day it was born , the sauerkraut was full of clove flavour and the mixed grill with leberkase was luke warm. We did get some money off our bill but the meal we were treating family to was mostly returned. The service from the staff was friendly and professional and the beer was ok. Although we didn't expect the best German food we certainly didnt expect the worst!

Not quite an authentic German experience but, great for a work ‘do’ or an informal party as it provides something different. The beers are always good and food is ok (would recommend a platter). Thursday nights are especially fun as there’s usually an oompah band.

Classic German-themed bierkeller with the Paulaner signature. The food was also quite good. There weren’t just enough waiters for us to always catch them and all the tables were full at some point with only 2 people serving. The team was really attentive even though. Food was decent. Good selection of traditional German food. Beer was also good and fresh. Pretzels were warm and tasty.

Said it was table service and failed to mention the 12.5% service fee if you have table service rather than going up to the bar. Written on the menu but obviously tiny at the bottom which feels a bit sneaky. When we questioned being charged extra our server was quite rude about it. Atmosphere is pretty stale.

Bouncers good walking around but they have to realize we are there and that's what pays their salary. You are allowed to smile and still do your job else it always feels like you have to walk on egg shells, caught one or 2 nodding off upstairs. Drinks take a little long at times but vibe is good and bar Staff great nobody just standing around. Beer snacks are great wouldn't recommend the pork knuckle, music and atmosphere created are amazing.

Went here to celebrate my birthday with friends from work. The staff looked after us really well from beginning to end. I ordered some drinks in advance and the value of these was great. We had a big group and so everyone wanted to sort their food out at different times. The staff were very accommodating and even pointed out food offers they had on, where people could get more for their money. Sausage dish and a pint for £12.50, excellent value. The beer is good, the atmosphere is great, the food was amazing. Everyone in my group had a great time. I was even given a birthday gift to help with the celebrations, which was totally unnecessary but very gratefully received. I couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate my birthday with friends. 100% will be going again... and again... and, well you get the point. I only wish I could remember the name of our host, he gave me a card but I lost it on the route home. He was so friendly and wanted to ensure we had everything we needed to have a good time.

I have been going to the Victoria MCC with friends for some time, usually on a Saturday lunchtime when it’s less busy than evenings. The staff are helpful and friendly and the food authentically German and very well cooked. German language is not in evidence, apart from the menu, but typical German music plays, and on certain evenings, live music sets the tone. I particularly like their draught Munich Paulaner pilsner. Altogether, for those who like the German atmosphere and cuisine, the MCC is worth a visit.

Second one of these places I've been too, and now the last. My pork knuckle that came had soggy flabby skin, no crackle at all. The inside of the joint was ice cold. Obviously reheat these too order, which I understand, but to serve it in this condition is criminal. Had to leave most of it(see photo)My partners vegan bratwurst also wasn't very well cooked.

I went for the business lunch deal at the London Victoria venue. The chicken schnitzel was delicious and it was a large portion with a very nice salad. However they could pay attention to some details; this a German themed restaurant, mustard is a basic item and in Germany it is often well-paired with any German dish so to not offer mustard was rather disappointing. Also, I am aware this is a beer hall but there are often non-drinkers who accompany their friends to the venue, and for the 'business lunch' the management should consider a non-alcoholic alternative to the schnapps. If a diet coke was offered as an alternative I would be more likely to return as I really liked the venue and the waitress was perfectly pleasant.

Very mediocre experience overall. The only authentic German thing in there were beers and pretzels. The staff is very young, inexperienced, and struggled to service our group (they tried, though had some attitude). Über loud music (generic 80s and 90s radio) didn't help, and it was very hard to hold a conversation with anyone at the table or even order food or drinks. Food overpriced for what it really was - plates and trays full of chips with slabs of unseasoned meat and sausage tossed on them. It is better suitet for after-work beers and bites for under 10 ppl, not for a sit-down dinner.

Is this venue permanently closed? I went along on Wednesday 19th June 2024 at about 14:30. The shutters were down . Went back four hours later, it was the same story. If it is now closed, could the website be updated please to inform people about this? The website gives the impression it is a going concern and you can make bookings. Am annoyed at making a wasted journey.
